It varies—weeks to months. Diet, exercise, and metabolism all play a role. If you have any further questions or need more clarity, please consult with a psychiatrist. If you`re in Texas, we welcome you to reach out to www.MidCitiesPsychiatry, we`re here to help you.

Yes. There r 6-different types. There r specific medications which work and right dosages can make a difference in personal or professional life. Also prevent alcohol and drug abuse
I my opinion Haloperidol is very unhealthy for humans and I am strongly against its use. Just about any atypical antipsychotic is safer if an antipsychotic is required. It can take months to lose the weight and as I have no idea how much weight was gained the rate of weight loss is a guess. I suggest a professionally instructed keto diet be implemented for more rapid weight loss. Properly done 20 lbs can be lost in one month on Keto. JJM
